The present disclosure describes methods and systems for a accessing a data element, providing a first view in response to the data element, the first view comprising at least a portion of the data element, determining a visualization element (VE) in response to the data element, and further in response to at least one of a user visualization selection or a user context value, and providing a second view in response to the VE and the data element.

Conditional formatting

The present disclosure describes methods and systems for interpreting a table grouping input value associated with a table, wherein the table comprises a plurality of categories and a plurality of associated data sets corresponding to the plurality of categories, determining an aggregation value in response to the table grouping input value, wherein the aggregation value corresponds to at least one of the plurality of categories, and in response to the aggregation value, providing an aggregated table view.

Customizations based on client resource values

The present disclosure describes methods and systems for a document server communicatively coupled to at least one client computing device, a document comprising an operation log, wherein the operation log comprises at least one first sequential operation defining operations to create data values of the document, a document object model, wherein the document is at least partially positioned on at least one of the document server and a first client computing device of the at least one client computing device, and a formula engine, wherein the formula engine is structured to determine a calculation definition in response to the user formula value and the document object model.

Formulas

The present invention discloses receiving a first operation log from a first computing device, creating a first document view in response to the first operation log, the document view comprising content generated using at least a portion of the first operation log, providing the first document view to a display device, receiving a user document change input value, and creating a local operation log in response to the first operation log and the user document change input value, the local operation log comprising at least one sequential operation defining operations to create a second document, updating the first document view in response to the user document change input value, and communicating a change value for the first operation log to the first computing device in response to the first operation log and the local operation log.

Operations log

Multi-level table grouping

The present disclosure describes methods and systems for interpreting a first user input comprising a text flow entry, interpreting a second user input comprising one of an in-line data access entry and a table-based calculation entry, positioning a text entry value on a unified document surface in response to the first user input, creating at least one data structure in response to the one of the in-line data access entry and the table-based calculation entry, and positioning the data structure on the unified document surface.

Unified document surface

Embodiments provide for systems, methods, and computer program products for optimizing content rendered at a display unit by dynamically formatting the content layout based on a display unit's parameters. For example, content is received from a server. The content is capable of being rendered at a number of remote display devices with various display parameters. In addition, a number of display rules are also received. The display rules specify how content should be rendered in terms of content layout and properties by the remote display devices based on the parameters of the display devices. The display rules are compared with the parameters of a display device that is used to render the content. Based on the comparison, at least one of the display rules is applied such that the layout of the content on the display device is optimized for the particular parameters of the display device.

Dynamic optimization of available display space

Determining document layout between different views is disclosed. The content of the document is reformatted between layouts while user experience elements are persisted between views. In general, a user may switch between document views. An anchor point for a first view is identified and the anchor point is mapped to the content of the new view. The anchor point is positioned in the new view to allow a smooth user transition between views. Zooming ratios and selections may be persisted between views to create continuity between views. Objects may be reformatted between views to best fit the view.

Determining document layout between different views

Various technologies and techniques are disclosed that provide ways to position, size, and/or anchor page elements for display on varying output devices. A user can assign rendering specifications to both text and graphic elements. Rendering specifications include, but are not limited to width, height, anchor(s), and/or offset(s) to one, some, or all page elements. Page elements will appear in the positions and relationships to each other as specified in the source document.

Figure sizing and positioning on dynamic pages

Aspects of the subject matter described herein relate to arranging content in single and multi-column formats to be displayed using a graphical user interface (GUI). Aspects also relate to utilizing user feedback to determine available screen area for displaying multiple items of the content and arranging and formatting the content for display using heuristics (e.g., rules or logic) that provide guidelines for arranging the content in a readable format while utilizing the available area indicated by the user.

Adaptive layout for content

Described is a technology by which a piece of content is selected from among at least two pieces of content in response to a request to return content. The selection is based on an evaluation of current state data against the properties/characteristics of the content. For example, the state data may define a currently available size; each piece of content has associated size properties (e.g., height and width ranges) that can be matched in the selection process. In a layout system, a parent container may request content from a child container that is associated with the selection process. The selection process may, for example, evaluate the child's pieces of content in an evaluation order, with the first appropriate matching piece of content selected. If no content matches, a default piece of content, or a code that indicates that no content is to be shown, is returned.
